This summer and fall I worked on the heart rate monitor shirt and took a newer version to Burning Man. What's new? I got rid of the single LEDs on the front of the shirt and am now using a light pipe from SparkFun with an RGB LED at the end. Unfortunately this didn't look much better than before, but was a smoother and more obvious heart. Also, I crammed all the control boards and battery into a smaller box.
I have been trying to get one of these wired pulse sensors for detecting the heart rate instead of the wireless Polar heart rate monitor strap that talks to the SparkFun HRMI. Once I get one I will embark on a complete rebuild from the ground up.
